Monthly Women's Events

This ministry gives women in our church and community an opportunity to connect with each other through different kinds of social events each month. Monthly gatherings include a variety of different kinds of activities:

  • Game nights
  • Going to a restaurant
  • Doing an outdoor activity like kayaking.
  • Hearing from an expert in a field, such as interior design or self-defense.


The goal of this ministry is give a platform for women to get to know each other better whether they are part of our congregation or not.


At each gathering a woman from our church shares her story about what God has done in her life.


The women’s ministry normally meets on campus the last Sunday of each month at 5:00 p.m.  Generally there is no cost to participate, but some events require a registration fee.


If you want more information about specific women’s events, contact Renee Heiser: drheiser5@msn.com.

If you want to do a deep dive into Scripture, our church hosts a women’s Bible Study Fellowship on Monday nights at 6:55 p.m. For more information, check out www.bsfinternational.org.
